Good read on the heels of another poll showing Newt in first! :-)

Another pro-amnesty lefty saying good things about a RINO.

The "Newt Gingrich for President" ping list!

If you want ON or OFF of the ping list, just let me know!

To whom it may concern: If you wish to give me BREAKING news, links, information, or tidbits for the purpose of (perhaps) having me post it at FR, your confidentiality WILL be kept by yours truly. I will tell NOBODY the source of my information.



Conservatism, experience, results, eloquence, statesmanship, knowledge.
SERIOUS solutions to SERIOUS problems!
The Conservative who practices Capitalism and gets hated for it!

---Newt Gingrich 2012.

Reuben Navarette: No way Jose.

[TitansAFC]

Ah, yes....the ever-malleable and now effectively meaningless “RINO” tag.

BTW - that “pro-amnesty” left was selling us Herman Cain a short while ago.

[TitansAFC]

Ping!

[CainConservative]

? ? ?

[GeronL]

Ruben Navarrett (or however its spelled), this writer, has never been on our side.

There is no doubt that Gingrich is a divisive and polarizing figure.

Yep, that's a real compliment...LOL.

Newt Gingrich got his new spot atop the GOP presidential field the old-fashioned way: He earned it.

excuse me...i’ve got to puke.

Are you finished?

[Semper911]

There is nothing the left would love more than another cranky old has-been on the ticket.

See also: Bob Dole and John McCain.

I don't care how smart he is -- the country isn't going to get behind him. It is the media who is propping him up in recent polls.

That Newt Gingrich was paid by Freddie Mac over a $million for consultation work shows the value he commands in the Washington D.C. universe. Think of the value we will get if he were the consultation in chief as POTUS. We will get his services for pennies on the dollar and, for once, get something done for a change.

[TitansAFC]

Whatever your beliefs on electability, you lose credibility when you suggest the media is “pumping-up” Newt. A simple Google News search reveals a roughly 95% negative to 5% positive litany of stories on Newt.

The only positive thing that is reported is his poll position.

Here’s why Ruben likes him: http://2012.republican-candidates.org/Gingrich/Issues.php

On Amnesty

May 19, 2011, Iowa
“No serious citizen who’s concerned about solving this problem should get trapped into a yes/no answer in which you’re either for totally selling out protecting America or you’re for totally kicking out 20 million people in a heartless way. There are — there are humane, practical steps to solve this problem, if we can get the politicians and the news media to just deal with it honestly.”

Newt’s another “compassionate conservative” with a heart as big as Texas!

The Weekly Standard, Wall Street Journal, National Association of Green Grocers, American Chamber of Commerce, AFL-CIO ... they probably all love this guy.
Like Ruben Navarette, La Raza, MECHA y todos los Bund Mexicano.

Sorry, but I can’t agree with you there. To put Newt in the same category as that doddering old grandpa Dole....or that slimy “hero”..ahem..McCain....is nothing short of ridiculous. Not even close.

Think whatever you want of him, but Newt’s IQ is off the charts. He’s a Constitutional scholar and historian. He is eloquent. He understands conservatism at its core. He learned the hard way that he can’t and shouldn’t always try to be popular or liked.

The man learned a lot from his mistakes, and he did one hell of a lot right back in the ‘90’s.

I’d vote for him in a heartbeat, while I had to hold my nose to vote for Dole and McCain.

[TitansAFC]

Is that the same reason he liked Cain?

[wmfights]

We will get his services for pennies on the dollar and, for once, get something done for a change.

The question is will we get things done right.

Newt is very close to the beltway and tends to look at solutions through better mgmt of govt, not eliminating govt.

Think SCOTUS appointments!!
